Trump clashes with Nato countries over refusal to help reopen Strait of Hormuz

President Donald Trump has expressed anger at NATO countries for refusing to cooperate with the US in reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has effectively choked off the maritime passage, which transports over 20 percent of the world's crude oil, two weeks into a US-Israeli war on the country. European leaders, including those from Germany, France, and the UK, have rejected involvement, not wanting to be dragged into a conflict they view as illegal. Trump voiced his displeasure, particularly with the UK, and suggested that NATO allies owe the US support due to American funding of the alliance.
